Gim Joo Hyung, a 28-year-old South Korean who is a Singaporean PR, pleaded guilty to 3 counts of voyeurism and was sentenced to 22 weeks imprisonment on 4 October.
24 other charges were taken into consideration during his sentencing.
He was an NS Man with the Singapore Police Force’s Police Coast Guard, and was most notably the interpreter for the Trump-Kim summit held here back in 2018.
He was caught earlier this year in February using a pinhole camera to record videos of women who were using the toilet.
What happened?
Gim purchased a pinhole camera and installed it secretly inside a toilet on 23 February 2021.
He made sure that it was properly concealed and not visible immediately, turning it on and leaving the toilet.
The camera was spotted by a 23-year-old woman who removed the memory card and viewed the contents, discovering footage of herself along with 2 other victims who had used the toilet.
The memory card also contained a video of Gim handling the pinhole camera.
A police report was then made and Gim’s personal laptop was then seized, and forensics uncovered 178 downloaded obscene videos and 31 upskirt videos.
Gim later admitted to investigators that his voyeuristic act started in 2013 after he watched similar videos on p*rn websites.
He would use his phone to film women in public before transferring the videos onto his computer to watch them.
HI, not sure if punish is the right word. How shd I get back at that unfaithful creep and his mistress? I have given up on him and thinking of creating some drama before filing for divorce. So far I can only think of exposing them on social media (not really a gd idea cos my boss and colleagues will find out) or going to her place and create drama until the whole blk can hear.
I just wana show some colors to them. To show them that I am not invisible and won’t be bullied so easily and just keep quiet. I want to catch them in the act like edison chen but thats like very hard. Or should I try revenge cheating? I read about it like quite common in western countries. I feel if I dress up with make up still can attract guys. Or i can swipe guys on tinder.
Then I will bring him back. I’m staying with in laws, so imagine how they will react.
Don’t blame me. Blame their son. A woman scorned is a vengeful woman.
Remember when we were together for less than 2 years and i just came out from army and started working for a few months, you see your best friend shotgun marriage and suddenly have the urge to marry also? I wasn’t ready yet, so you let your whole family pressure me to faster propose and married you. And it works.. We married 4 months later.
When you move into my parents’ house, you behave like a pamper princess who never touch any household chores, including washing your own clothes and your own plates, and expected my mum to be your maid. You even leave your used bloody pad in the bathroom and expected others to help you throw. When my sister saw it, throw for you, and tell you to throw yourself next time, you not only insist is not yours, you still accuse must be my mum’s one. Hello, my mum have menopause already, so no way is hers.
When you see your best friend gave birth, you have the urge to have baby also. I told you we are not mentally and financially ready to be a parent yet. You tell me don’t worry, your mum will help take care our baby and your parents will financially support us. So be it lucky or what, you do get pregnant 1 month later.
You stop me from going out meeting my friends and insist my full attention is just on you. You insist i must send you to and fro your office, as you claim you don’t want to squeeze in the public transport. My boss wasn’t really happy with me as i normally will be the last to reach, first to leave in the office. So i tried to bring work back home to continue. But you insist i must pay full attention to you back home, for example, massage your leg every night, and attent to your 24/7 craving. Once, you insist your have craving on boon lay power nasi lemak and made me drive all the way from simei to boon lay in 12am-midnight! And when i back, you scolded me you taking so long, and started to quarrel, waking the whole family up. My mum tries to calm you down, but you just scream at my mum, saying she only side her son and is a failure mother. Then you called your parents to fetch you back to their house.
Despite you scolding her, my mum still side you and order me to coax you and bring you back. Telling me you are pregnant and i should be more understanding to you. Fine. After i bring you back, my mum privately talk to you and i don’t know what is being discussed.. But you seem fine after that.
You used to be 42kg. But after you give birth, your weight maintain around 62kg. I ask you to go excerise, you say too tired. Ask you to eat lesser, you say cannot because you are still breastfeeding.. Fine. But after stop breastfeeding, your appetite never drop. Your mum take care of the baby less than a day, claim is too tiring for her, so push the caregiver duty back to my mum. My mum no choice have to quit her job to take up the caregiver role. My salary is only $2000 before cpf contribution. When the caregiver is your mum, you insist i must pay $1000 to your mum as allowance. But when it switch to my mum taking care, you insist it is my mum’s duty, so we don’t need to pay to my mum. Afterall, the baby surname is under my family’s one. To prevent any quarrelling, my mum shut me up and willing to take care without us giving her any allowance.
Jessica, my ex, is totally different from you. When we were together, she treated my parents like hers. We broke purely because she was going oversea for study and long diatance relationship didn’t work for us. You shouldn’t blame me when she became my colleague in my new workplace. Blame it on yourself for forcing me to quit my previous job. If not, i will never meet Jessica.
Yes, i am ready for divorce and you can have the baby by yourself. If you think still think is my, Jessica’s or my family’s fault, so be it.
A netizen shared a story about how he was approached by his friend who was more than $100k in debt for a loan to help pay some of it off.
But his friend then used the money that he loaned from him to buy a 2nd hand Audi A5 instead, ignoring his debts.
Here is the story:
“I had a friend who came to me for a loan of about $60k, reason being he was about $100k in debt and needed some help.
Of course I didn’t loan him the entire $60k, he had went to others for a loan too and the total amount that he loaned from all of us added to about $60k.
We loaned him the money fully expecting him to use it to help with his debts.
But a few weeks later we see the bugger with a new Audi A5 on his instagram captioning that “dreams come true if you work hard”.
Knn I see alr I jitao want to throw my phone.
He had used the money that he loaned from us to buy a 2nd hand Audi A5 Coupe.
We confronted him as a group and he admitted that he used our money to buy the car, and that his $100k debt was still there.
We really give up on him and feel that at this point, we are probably not gonna get our money back.”
Editor’s note: I really don’t know how all these people can so easily get their friends to loan them $10k, $20k, $50k etc. I can’t even get my friend to loan me $12 to buy cigarettes because I forgot my wallet. Y’all really solid…

A man shared a story on how he got into debt after inheriting a large amount of money from his parents.
Here is the story:
I often hear stories of people win TOTO but end up getting poorer after that and I did not believe it.
My parents left me when I was young and I was only allowed access to the inheritance at 25-years-old. The sum is something like winning a TOTO, during that age I was not smart with the handling of money and I end up getting tons of rubbish.
I bought a car, a branded watch and I took a loan to get a condominium. I was not doing any monthly financing and soon the money was gone in less than a year.
I could no longer pay for the condominium’s loan and I had to sell my car and branded watch to sustain. Even after selling my valuables, I did not wake up. I still continued my lavish lifestyle and I did not even bother buying any insurance as I believe that I was young and healthy.
A few months of jolly well fun and I ran out of money again. So I decided to rent out rooms in my condo to pay for the instalment while trying to secure a job.
The global pandemic hit me at this time and I could not find any tenants. I also did not secure a job in time.
My plan failed one after another and I decided to take a “private loan” which was the dumbest thing I did after getting an inheritance. The loan was the last move that destroyed me, I soon was getting harassed day and night as I have no means of returning and luckily I manage to rent out 1 room and make a partial payment to my monthly loan.
Even opening the mailbox strikes fear in my heart and It is always a letter of demand for my housing loan.
Now I live in fear, no money, no job, housing loan, private loans…
